BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

bozey45 As one who never saw many of the episodes of the series back in the 60's when it first aired, I had to see the series from the beginning on THIS-TV. I have to disagree with a poster earlier who said this was made for kids; the books may have that the series was based on but if you watch it today you see much of the humor and dialog is aimed at adults. The interaction between Wilbur and Ed was made even better by the fact that Allan 'Rocky' Lane voiced his Mr. Ed lines right there on set, not recorded later in a voice-over studio. The palomino used as Mr. Ed was very well trained as you notice when viewing the series and the still secret method of making his mouth move was just an extra added attraction. Those disguises on Ed like the large glasses just added to the reality of the show. You have to think what was going through the mind of that horse when filming the series. The supporting players were great on this series from the original couple next door to the last couple next door. Larry Keating having been the neighbor to Burns and Allen for year on their show fit right in as a neighbor and Leon Ames, a veteran TV actor, perfect as Wilbur's former Commander. And what can one say about the beautiful Connie Hines as his bewildered wife? Guest stars were numerous on the series and must have loved the exposure, even Mae West and Zsa Zsa wanted to guest. Until you view this series today, to say that it was totally for kids is a big mistake.

Josephine Bonett G'dayAs a young girl, I used to see Mister Ed on free to air TV. Then as an adult, I saw the repeats and realised it was a fabulous show for all ages with it's excellent humour. Actually the humour would be more appreciated by mature people than very young children. Very clever scripts with witty dialogue. I love horses but I'm sure Mister Ed wouldbe enjoyed by non-horsey people just as much as horse lovers. I would recommend the Mister Ed series to any age group. You grown ups out there, if you haven't watch any Mister Ed episodes, please do as it's definitely not just a show for children. Honestly! Three examples of the humour: (1) Kaye (with Roger behind her) runs in to tell Carol "Get your laundry, Roger is taking us to the cleaners". Carol says "That's nice of you Roger". Roger replies "That's the least I can do, she is always taking me to the cleaners".(2) Mr Ed is listening in on the extension phone and Wilbur catches him and hangs up the phone, saying "That's the last time I'm telling you not to ears-drop". Mr Ed replies "Good, because I'm sick of hearing it".(3) A new neighbour (who has been upset by Mr Ed but naturally he thinks it's Wilbur causing the problem) knocks on Wilbur's door. When Wilbour answers (Roger happens to be with him), the neighbour says with his fist ready to punch Wilbur "Do you want a punch". Roger says "The things they sell these days from door to door". You will not be disappointed if you buy the Mister Ed DVDs.(NOTE: I haven't made any spelling errors - we Australians spell some words different to how the USA spell them! Cheers from Josephine from Down Under.

Stunoss I am interested in contacting Carole Evern who appeared in episode #2.11 on "Mister Ed" Dec 17, 1961 as Zelda Mordini. I last saw Carole in 1956 shortly after I was discharged from the Army, when she was a Rockette at Radio City Music Hall. We dated briefly (I recall a lovely day at Jones Beach on Long Island) and then she left for California, I thought to attend the Pasadena Playhouse. I've attempted to locate Carole through the Rockette alumni group- Corliss Whitney but without success.

Lee Eisenberg Wilbur Post (Alan Young) seems like an average person, with a wife named Carol (Connie Hines), a house, and a steady job as an architect, except for one thing: his horse.As the theme song reminds us: "A horse is a horse, of course, of course..." But Ed is no ordinary equine. He talks, albeit only to his owner (Ed calls Wilbur "the only person worth talking to"). Not only does Ed talk, he causes all sorts of trouble, which always gets pinned on Wilbur. Whether eating Carol's tomatoes or pulling down neighbor Roger Addison's (Larry Keating) TV antenna, that palomino always has something up his sleeve, er...hoof. Oftentimes, Ed will do something around a stranger, causing a lot of confusion for the latter.As for other aspects of the show, Wilbur somehow always has the worst luck, not even necessarily caused by Ed's tricks. Carol is truly one hot babe. Roger and Kay (Edna Skinner) can fluctuate between sour and good-neighborly. Overall, the show is pretty silly, but it's not doing any harm. I recommend it.
